Speaker Pelosi's Home Has Been Attacked
SoCal Deek replied to Trump_is_Mentally_fit's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Goose....speaking as the architect here....it virtually impossible to break laminated glass with a hammer. You may mean tempered glass, but that shatters into little pebbles, and is installed in doors, just for that reason, should the door unexpectedly slam shut. -
Will same sex marriage be codified in Congress?
SoCal Deek replied to Doc Brown's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Chef, may I respectfully suggest you seek out a local pastor? They’ll be happy to explain all of this. You’re way way out of your core competency here. Financial planning…apparently yes. Christianity….not so much. 😉 -

You’re hung up on the word ‘love’. It is NOT the central principle of marriage. -

Chef…with all due respect…as a self described non-believer may I suggest you avoid your novice critique of a faith you couldn’t care less about. I’m not a Muslim but I make a concentrated effort not to step into their traditions. Again, respectfully. -

It has for centuries been defined as the socially recognized and consecrated bond/commitment between a man and a woman. It is of course just a word….but words do have meaning. -

Let’s not get off track here. We’re talking about the definition of ‘marriage’ not ‘love’….and you know it Counselor. -

Chef….none of this has anything to do with love. Just because your mother gave you an aspirin when you were sick, it didn’t cause you to call her ‘doctor’. -
Kvetching….nice! I’m going to have to use that three times in a sentence today. Wasn’t the entire purpose of Mr Musk buying the platform to eliminate the censorship? I can’t imagine people are all that upset about the lack of a foosball table in the staff lounge at a company where they don’t even work.

Correct. And as many on here know I have a slightly different, and often controversial or misunderstood take on this subject. The Christian church is not against gay people. The beef is with the hijacking of the word ‘marriage’ which has long meant something specific and set aside in the Church. I know certain folks don’t like it when I say it but would it REALLY have been all that difficult to come up with a unique word for this particular type of union? Not less, not more, but a more descriptive use of the language. It’s controversy for controversy sake. And in my opinion relegating gay people to a second class hyphenated label of marriage is just sad. My two cents. -
Hunter Biden's Laptop Thread
SoCal Deek replied to Trump_is_Mentally_fit's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Geeez! Congressional members sit on multiple committees. I have no idea what is so darn complicated about that concept. This particular committee focuses solely on oversight. Have you never been on a subcommittee at work? May I ask what the heck you do for a living? -
Huh? And apparently Goose doesn’t like it, which he’s free to not like. So? There are a lot of companies that I don’t personally care for, and stores I don’t shop at, but in a free market, that’s how it works. If Mr Musk wants to put his personal management touch on his business….he can. That used to be how America worked.

Hunter Biden's Laptop Thread
SoCal Deek replied to Trump_is_Mentally_fit's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Oh brother. Do you live under a rock? (Sorry) Speaker McCarthy laid out (in writing) their entire agenda prior to the election. Looking into stuff like this is just one of dozen things on that agenda. -
Hunter Biden's Laptop Thread
SoCal Deek replied to Trump_is_Mentally_fit's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Thanks Goose. I’m not sure what people want the oversight committee to …oversee? This topic seems to be exactly the kind of thing they should look into. The Republicans didn’t invent this story. It’s 100% true and literally fell into their laps through the very reckless actions of Hunter Biden. Whether it in fact leads back to the sitting President will never be known without…oversight. There are actual, live, witnesses who will testify (under oath) that it most definitely does. -

That SubCommittee? Hopefully they’re not writing legislation, increasing my taxes, or declaring a war somewhere. You do understand the definition of a ‘subcommittee’…. right? -

What? Have you never been on a committee at work? Yes, they are members of congress. But their charge on the Oversight Subcommittee....is...wait for it.....OVERSIGHT! -

It’s the Oversight SubCommittee. They don’t spend money. Why is everything so complicated all the time? -

Unbelievable You do realize there’s a huge difference between oversight and legislation ….right? Please tell me you do! Sheeesh -

Wait…what? You’re a smart guy/gal Tibs. You want the House Oversight Committee to work on inflation? And when they do I’m guessing we’ll see a full page post from you about how it’s overreach from that subcommittee. Cut the crap! It’s not the entire House. It’s a freaking subcommittee. Sheesh. -

It’s way beyond that. There’s oversight needed into the role that the FBI and DOJ played in suppressing this story. Questions definitely need to be asked and answered….under oath…as Goose would say.
